Descripción
An observational test of the binary hypothesis for the origin of the
blue straggler (BS) stars has been performed searching for radial
velocity variables among 27 BS in five galactic clusters. The
significance of the BS phenomenon for the interpretation of evolutionary
synthesis models and the spectra of elliptical galaxies is briefly
discussed.
